Going back in time.










Going through our photos, it seems I somehow missed posting our pumpkin patch excursion.  This year was super cool because there is actually a pumpkin field in Ferndale that was free to the public.  We have always driven all the way up to Arcata, and this was so much better.  It was a beautiful night, just before sunset, and I'm always hoping that the beauty of this small town will win Nick over so that he'll one day buy me a big, old (but completely remodeled) farm house with a wrap around porch and a view of the mountains behind it.  I'm thinking a modest 2400 sq ft, 4 bedroom house with an above the garage room to utilize as our playroom/schoolroom.
Anyway... it was absolutely gorgeous as we picked over the remaining pumpkins out in the field just a day or two before Halloween.  We never actually got around to carving those pumpkins, but they did look really nice out on our porch for quite some time.  Now, they are sitting out by the road waiting for disposal.  I was hoping someone would grab them to use as target practice or something, but I guess we'll be putting them in my parent's green waste bin instead.
